I found these in my attic last night, and thought it would be fun to post them. This was probably one of the first times I ever worked 'on set' as it were. It was for the NME way back in '93 or 94' can't remember exactly. The Inspirals had a new song with The Falls Mark E Smith on guest vocals and the NME commissioned me to go along to the shoot and cover it. I had a brilliant time, what a fun day, the storyline for the video was fairly simple, band plays on stage, bunch of beautiful girls invade stage and beat up the band, then run away....genius!
The band members were very friendly, especially Tom and Clint Boon who was just hilarious, any time he spoke you just cracked up laughing.
The shoot was somewhere in Camden I think, possibly the Roundhouse, but it was so long ago now, I really can't remember much more from the day. I thought the song was quite good, it was one of their last hits before they went off into obscurity, and to be honest they are now most famous for having had a certain Noel Gallagher as their guitar technician.
